I was introduced to the 'Dukan Diet' by a friend who had success. After reading "The Dukan Diet" by Dr Pierre Dukan, I was convinced this was for me:
a) I can eat all the meat/seafood/eggs I want throughout the first week of the diet
b) I can eat these foods at any time I want
c) So it really feels like I'm on no diet at all
After weighing up all my options, I decided to start my Dukan on Monday 2nd May 2011. I literally woke up that morning and said "right, I'm going to start the Dukan", and I thought of 3 good reasons why it was a good time to start:
1) It was a Monday, start of a new week
2) It was May, start of a new month (well, 2nd day, but let's not get fancy)
3) I had turned 27 on Saturday, so it's like the start of my life as a 27 year old
With around 20 kgs that I want to lose, it will be a battle ahead. First day of Dukan I was really missing bread, yesterday was vegies (which I can start eating next week) and today it was sweets! So I made a Dukan Chocolate Creme which I will happily eat tomorrow.
It's only the third day and I've lost almost 2 kgs. And yes, I know that it's all water weight. But it is a nice incentive to eat more meat/eggs/tuna. Imagine the end result!
So, that's all. I'll let you all know how I'm progressing in the next few months. My aim is to lose around 20 kgs, so wish me luck!
For more info on the Dukan Diet, you can buy the book from any bookstore (it was $20 from Angus & Robertson) or check it out here.
Happy Dukan everyone!
Sincerely Yours,
